Even at this early stage, ETTV has been confirmed for both games courtesy of Team-Zenith, details can be found below:

Time: 20:00 CET
ETTV: gtv coverage

ETTV gtv coverage

Coverage *UPDATE*
I've just spoken to FlyingDJ[/b] who has given me his personal assurances that he will be shoutcasting the 141 - god game! Stop chaging your mind damnit!:>

TosspoT and RadioiTG also will be out in force, casting the uQ - IDKFA game. It's a little bit of a sad occasion, with Tossie going back to university to do that thing they call missing lectures and eating breakfasts of pizza. Enjoy the 'fun' while it lasts!

Expect plenty more ETTV servers to be listed soon!

Happy New Year to all readers of Xfire.be! May you have a great evening and and a brilliant 2006!

Only division 1 will be published on xfire.be, other clans can check their division and opponent on www.NxM.nl.

All info about the clans is on the Clans page on the site, if the info of your clan isn't working or is wrong, pm or mail me to change it. For all clanname changes and more, pm me to update the site. If your clan is dead, mail me so another clan can replace yours.

It is a happy day in the danish ET community because the third generation of uNtried is here. For the first time in a long while there is a pure danish team with potential to become great. For those who do not know uNtried, you should check the first OpenCup in EnemyTerritory

It is the recently reopened danish clan deLicta who has taken the rather big task of living up to the reputation of the first generation of uNtried. As some might now, the second generation team was a bit of a failure, due to the "WoW fever".

The lineup of the third generation of uNtried is:

Exalon
Flick
Exquizit
Deggy
Gyzr
Kark
Hein
Jetz

It is nice for the danish ET community to finally have a bit of activity again and rumour has it that another danish clan maybe will return again. There is an interview at ET.played.dk, in danish though.

So, the end of another year. And what a year its been! 2005 can be looked back on as possibly the most successful year for ET since it came into being nearly three years ago, in April of '03. And the reason for the success? Quite simply, the community. People like you who keep this game not just alive, but very much kicking. This equates to both the non-playing community, and the players themselves.

This is why we have decided to host ET awards for 2005; to look back on the year that has been and celebrate all that has been good for arguably the best year that ET has enjoyed.

The awards have been a joint initiative between resku (who deserves most of the credit), and TosspoT, two individuals committed to this community, and in thanking those who have given us all so much. All we ask now is that you take a little time over your work to consider the votes available accross 5 different categories of recognition, and reward those who deserve it. Much work and pain (yes, real pain!) went into making the articles not only look pretty, but also be extremely useful. We hope you enjoy reading them, and voting.

We also managed to actually get the previously borked articles section working, and so the awards can be seen in their full glory HERE.

And now if I type anymore I actually will die. Cya tomorrow, vote the night away!
The deadline is January 1st.

Here comes another ET 3v3 Cup. I always wanted to host a cup, so here it is. You can get in by singing up at website or by invitation.

That's it. I wish you all good luck & have fun!

We are over the 48 signups now! Atm we have 49 signups, just keep op signing up your team and i'll try to make another tree if there are enough clans! If there aren't enough clans signed up for a fourth tree, they will be reserve to replace a clan who dropped out (can be in every round).

Well, after I have more than 32 clans signed up, I'm going to make a second playoff tree. The first 32 clans are sure of participating, unless they die or they don't want to participate anymore. If you click here, you can see the 32 clans who are in the cup atm. To see the amount of clans signed up you can check the IRC channel, the topic will be updated after a new clan signed up.

BUT, the clans signed up after the first 32 still got a chance! At the moment I have 34 signups in my mailbox, if there come 14 more, I can make a third playoff tree and more clans can participate!

It looks like this now:
- 32 Clans
- 2 Playoff tree's
- 4 Matchweeks
- 2 Winners

You can still sign your clan up till Sunday 24:00 CET Midnight. On Monday, the playoff three's will be made, then you can see in what division you are and versus who you need to play. That will also be posted here on xfire.be!

The map votes atm:
- Battery (5)
- et_Ice (11)
- et_frostbite (2)
- dubrovnik_final (2)
- Railgun (3)
- Fueldump (1)
- tc_Base (1)
- reactor_final (2)

If you think that et_Ice is not the good map to play in the Second round, pm me on IRC or mail me with your fav. map. The map vote will be updated on the main page of the site.

Logo has been made by KeRiaL, many thanks!

At the moment, only 2 people signed up as admin for the cup. If you are experienced and you want to spec some nice games, mail me!

The Schedule, Results and the Grid have been updated to 2 Playoff tree's.

For the clans who signed up after the first 32, I hope there will come atleast 14 more signups to make a third playoff tree!

You’ve read the journal, here’s the news post…

Tonight we witnessed the final chapter of one ET's most respected clans. This team have competed at the highest level since the seventh day when God (bani) created ET. Achieving the accolade of Spain’s greatest clan, taking various honors and awards throughout their existence.

Morbit had this to say on their site (grammatical errors fixed)

Quote

After more than 2 years it is time to call it a day. We had 4 different teams in all over this long period but me (morbit) have been the only in all of them and what I can say is that the motivation is now what it used to be.

So we have decided to quit. We’ve talked about it on and off for a long time now and we agreed that after the EC our Red squad would be no more.

The current Red team members will go their separate ways, some remaining in ET whilst others travel the world in search of a social life.

Final wA Red Squad

- Morbit
- Dude
- FanTer
- Dr3am
- Anubis
- Lightning

Co-incidentally (woo) I won’t be posting anymore news, thankfully someone with writing talent has finally decided to get active. Go foonr :>
